I like all of them, usually get the green one, they are cheaper than the red & yellow for some reason at the stores here charge more for them. If I'm taking a relish
plate to take somewhere I usually get all three colors.

I can't eat them at all. I have IBS and they just cause havoc.

I have been told that green peppers are actually not ripe. That is why they upset peoples' stomachs. If it takes the grower longer to grow them to the red, orange, or yellow stages, they probably will expect more money per pound. Lately, stores in our area of upstate NY have been running sales of $.99 to $1.49 per pound. They freeze well when halved and seeded, so we get several pounds when the price is right.

You are correct, when we grew than in our garden it takes much longer to get to the read stage. The green ones seem to bother us so I get them most of the time.
I also have frozen them when we used or veg. garden, but we have not had it for a few years now, getting to hard to keep it up as we get older...the grocery is just fine with us.

Note: than should be "them" & read should be "red" guess I'm not fully awake this morning.
Also the green ones "don't". Maybe I should go back to bed & try again later.
